Criminal Justice (Illicit Traffic by Sea) Bill 2000: Committee and Remaining Stages.

 

10:30 am

Sheila Terry (Fine Gael)

I move amendment No. 5:

In page 6, subsection (2), between lines 11 and 12, to insert the following new paragraph:

"(d) inform the person of the evidence preferred against them by providing a summary of the evidence that it is proposed to give to the Convention State,".

This may have been dealt with already at an earlier section. The amendment is to provide the person who has been arrested with the summary of the evidence which is to be given to the convention state. Is that the norm? The arrested person should be entitled to a summary of the evidence.
